Café Pondi

Located in a row house in Kalyani Nagar that has previously housed at different times, a software company, a nursery school and a furniture store, Café Pondi is a fresh new look and feel for the space and the lane. Its bright yellow ochre walls and highlights, touches of blue and lovely wooden furniture give it the Indo-French vibe. The trees and greenery in the outdor section add to this countryside feeling.
It is a pure vegetarian café, with a menu designed by Chef Shailendra Kekade. They have flavoured kombucha and kefir, we tried the Pomegranate Kombucha. The menu is a mixed bag with some Italian, some South Indian and lots of snacky stuff. Garlic Podi Bread with Cheese, Moong Dal Chilla, Pineapple Poha, Pondi Club Sandwich, Melon Carpaccio, Arugula and Walnut Salad, Yaki Soba Noodles, Khao Suay, appams with different curries and pasta and pizza are some of the dishes on this menu.
A lovely space with a chilled vibe, quiet and tranquil, nice to sit outside and catch up with friends over a mixed bag of this and that under the trees and lose track of time.
